Sighting for September 7, 2019

Edward Perry IV

Bull Creek WMA
Osceola County, FL

Surveyed the shorter loop from West Loop, to Crossroad, then back around to East Loop, including Cemetery Road on the way out; not a whole lot going on today, very slow though we managed 29 species, the numbers were low and the morning almost seemed like a ghost town. Major nectar was Rose Rush, Bidens alba, and some Carolina Redroot. 9a to 1 pm, EPerry & RWarner; a good time was had by all.
